Low-dose anti-HIV drug efavirenz mitigates retinal vascular lesions in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

ABSTRACT: A small dose of the anti-HIV drug efavirenz (EFV) was previously discovered to activate CYP46A1, a cholesterol-eliminating enzyme in the brain, and mitigate some of the manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease in 5XFAD mice(a mouse model foe Alzheimers disease. Herein, we investigated the retina of these animals, which were found to have genetically determined retinal vascular lesions associated with deposits within the retinal pigment epithelium and sub retinal space.. Thus gain an unbiased insight into the processes in the retina that could be to affected by efavirenz treatment, the proteomic approach was used to compare the retinas of efavirenz -treated and control 5XFAD mice.

Low-dose anti-HIV drug efavirenz mitigates retinal vascular lesions in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

Project description:A small dose of the anti-HIV drug efavirenz (EFV) was previously discovered to activate CYP46A1, a cholesterol-eliminating enzyme in the brain, and mitigate some of the manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease in 5XFAD mice. Herein, we investigated the retina of these animals, which were found to have genetically determined retinal vascular lesions associated with deposits within the retinal pigment epithelium and subretinal space. We established that EFV treatment activated CYP46A1 in the retina, enhanced retinal cholesterol turnover, and diminished the lesion frequency >5-fold. In addition, the treatment mitigated fluorescein leakage from the aberrant blood vessels, deposit size, activation of retinal macrophages/microglia, and focal accumulations of amyloid b plaques, unesterified cholesterol, and Oil Red O-positive lipids. Studies of retinal transcriptomics and proteomics identified biological processes enriched with differentially expressed genes and proteins. We discuss the mechanisms of the beneficial EFV effects on the retinal phenotype of 5XFAD mice. As EFV is an FDA-approved drug, and we already tested the safety of small-dose EFV in patients with Alzheimer’s disease, our data support further clinical investigation of this drug in subjects with retinal vascular lesions or neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

Temporal and sex-linked protein expression dynamics in a familial model of Alzheimer’s Disease

Project description:Mouse models of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), which show progression through various AD stages reflective of human pathology, like 5XFAD, are well established tools for uncovering novel AD related pathways. In addition, they permit temporal examination of the intermingling of AD related pathways and can be used to potentially dissect initiating and propagating events in AD, which are critical for developing biomarkers or designing interventions in early stages of the disease. The present research offers a robust and exhaustive tandem MS examination of a familial AD mice model with a design including variables of: time (three, six, and nine months), genetic background (5XFAD vs. WT), and sex (equal males and females).

Transcriptomic effects of long-term pantethine treatment in the mouse Alzheimer's disease 5XFAD model

Project description:Pantethine, an anti-cholesterol drug, was shown to inhibit the Ab (amyloid beta) peptide-induced expression of IL-1b in primary culture astrocytes derived from either untreated Ab-treated and untreated 5XFAD or Ab-treated WT. These observations prompted us to investigate the effects of pantethine at the transcriptomic level in the mouse AD model.

Tunneling nanotubes contribute to the stroma-mediated imatinib resistance of leukemic cells DID

Project description:Intercellular communication within the bone marrow niche significantly influences leukemogenesis and the sensitivity of leukemic cells to therapy. However, the landscape of possible cell-cell interactions is still incomplete. Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are a novel mode of intercellular cross-talk. They are long, thin membranous conduits that enable the direct transfer of various cargo between cells. The present study found that TNTs are formed between leukemic and bone marrow stromal cells. Confocal three-dimensional reconstructions, correlative light-electron microscopy, and electron tomography provided evidence that TNTs transfer cellular vesicles between cells. The quantitative analysis demonstrated the stimulation of TNT-mediated vesicle transfer from stromal cells to leukemic cells by the stromal component. The vesicular cargo that was received from stroma cells conferred resistance to anti-leukemic treatment. Moreover, specific sets of proteins with a potential role in survival and the drug response were transferred within these vesicles. Altogether, we found that TNTs are involved in a novel and potent mechanism that participates in leukemia-stroma cross-talk and the stroma-mediated cytoprotection of leukemic cells. Our findings implicate TNT connections as a possible target for therapeutic interventions within the leukemia microenvironment to attenuate stroma-conferred protection.
